Chapter 35: Don't Be Afraid, Keep Going (4)

Under such an enthusiastic tone of the president, the general managers of each unit have more confidence when they report on their work - the boss said that if the investment increases by 40%, then it must be done quickly, and doing less is a failure.

You must know that the United Group now has performance appraisal and index management, and it must be inspected and supervised every month, and if it is not completed, it will wait for approval next month, and the management of the whole group will be notified if the circumstances are serious - it is really embarrassing to go home.

In other words, next year's plan has been basically determined in December, and only some fine-tuning will be made at the end of January when the work meeting is held, and in public, it is to grasp the main numbers and say it, and it sounds that the statements of each unit are very encouraging:

United Iron & Steel: Completed the installation of all equipment and made the first furnace of steel before Christmas;

United Chemical: Completed the infrastructure and equipment commissioning of each project, and put it into trial production in December;

Joint works: Genoa-Milan Express Line completed, 27% of the Northern Line completed, 20% of the Central Line completed and 15% of the Southern Line (Libya) completed......

"Additional targets should be ......added to the joint project," Contini suddenly interrupted the other party's speech, "Genoa and Venice have built new crude oil reserve warehouses, each with a storage capacity of no less than 10 million barrels, and the completion rate of the investment progress in the current year is not less than 30%...... Separate budget transfers"

"Yes!" The temporary increase in targets is the most frightening, but I am finally relieved to hear that "the budget is adjusted separately".

Then the joint construction plans to complete 5 million square meters, and the plan to build 50,000 ordinary houses and 8,000 workers' houses is also priced.

"From next year, the new workers' village will be renamed the Leader New Village, and the number will be increased to 10,000, and at the same time, a leader's park will be set up in the most central location, a bronze statue will be placed in it, a special display window will be set up for the leader's quotations, leaders' instructions, and leaders' footprints, and photos and statues of the leaders inspecting the new village, talking cordially with the workers, and caring for the people's lives - let the workers feel the leader's meticulous care and concern, and feel the warmth of the three flags."

The other side was dumbfounded, and blurted out the next sentence: "President, build 2,000 more sets, and there is no problem in building a park, but we haven't collected the leader's dynamics......"

"I cooperate with the Joint Construction Office in this matter." Goebbels immediately stepped forward, "I have the whole set of materials!" ”

"I emphasize that everyone must have a sense of the overall situation, a sense of discipline, and a sense of wholeness...... Now some people outside are criticizing us for doing our own thing and becoming a country within a country, and this is what I firmly oppose. Everyone must have a high degree of political awareness, the United Group is not a place outside the law, it is a model group of the Youth Union and Fascist, it is the Italian national policy group, and it is an important banner of the Party. It is not a matter of two people, nor is it just a matter of the joint group and one family, but it involves the overall situation of the party and the government, and the prestige of the leader. ”

Contini changed his serious tone, "Many people want to attack us, we can't be fooled if it's hard or soft, we can't be fooled - anyone who slanders and slanders the image of the leader and the party among the workers will be expelled; Anyone who ridicules the line and principles of the party and the group will be expelled; Anyone who spreads ideas that are not conducive to unity and do not conform to the ideas of the Three Banners and the Youth Alliance will be expelled; Anyone who engages in other organizational activities, such as the activities of the Socialist Party and the Communist Party, will be expelled! It doesn't matter if you scold me, I have set up a president's mailbox, and you can write to me as much as you want, and you can't be instigated to slander and slander the party and the government, especially not to make jokes about the leader. You are complaining casually here, and after being caught by the media, it is infinitely amplified, put on the platform, and reach the ears of the leader, what does he think? ”

Everyone's hearts sank and they nodded yes.

"In addition to these strictly forbidden acts, you should also raise your political consciousness in other ways...... You are all senior managers of the company, many of you are the backbone of the Youth League and the party, and many are even members of the executive committee of the alliance. Can't transform? The Youth Union is the party's assistant, reserve force and successor, what is the successor? Let's go back and think about it! We must improve our ideological awareness, last year's leaders came to inspect, some companies did a good job, workers are welcome, workshops, construction sites are cleaned refreshing, slogans, banners are very eye-catching, team members a lot have come to greet, explain, the leader is very happy, very satisfied, some companies are relatively lacking, the welcome ceremony is hasty, the atmosphere is not strong, usually it doesn't matter, there is a contrast at the critical moment! ”

"Some people may say that we are not a state-owned enterprise, so we don't have to engage in all this red tape, but I need to remind you that the United Group is different from other groups in Italy, it is not my personal business, it is just under my name, and in essence, the surname is the party!" It is the party that gives us motivation and support, and it is the most important cornerstone of the group! If the foundation is not solid and the ground is shaking, if the party and its leaders collapse, do you still believe that the United Group will be unscathed? Do you believe that yourselves and your 300,000 workers are safe and sound? At that time, we will definitely be counterattacked by our political enemies, and it will be good if everyone can save their lives at that time, what options, what shares, and what dividends are all dreams! Please put yourself in the right place! ”

Antonio and Leo sighed below: This is why the president has a sense of uneasiness and wants to arm himself desperately - the United Group has risen too fast, is too closely related to politics, and has not experienced the ups and downs like other old conglomerates, so it can only survive the dangerous period with an aggressive attitude, and if it can be passed on for 2-3 generations, it is estimated that the position will be secure. As for the shares that do not belong to Contini? It's good to laugh and laugh – it doesn't belong to Contini but it may belong to a wife, children and lovers, isn't that different?

In the end, it was the joint defense that came to the stage to express its position, and there was nothing else to say, because most of them were secretly developed, but the bullet was mentioned: "...... 65 rounds of 2 million rounds of ammunition and 79 rounds of 1 million rounds of ......"

Contini couldn't help but interrupt again: "65 bullets will be discontinued, and new bullets will be produced in full force, 5 million rounds a year, including 4 million for 79 ammunition and 1 million for 12.7 ammunition, and it will double to 10 million next year!" ”

"President, don't you have so many orders?"

"There will be, don't fail to finish it then!" Contini smiled at the other man, "Those machine guns are not decorations!" ”

Many people know in their hearts that the scale of the North African oil guard war may be even larger than they think.

The last item on the agenda of the three-day meeting is comprehensive evaluation and honorary recognition, which is also the advanced concept introduced by Contini from later generations - the entire group subsidiaries are assessed and evaluated according to the performance responsibility letter, which is divided into four gears: A, B, C, D, and Class A is the over-completion of performance, and the social response is good; Category B is the completion or basic completion of performance; Category C is incomplete, but the gap is not significant or could be improved; Category D is seriously unfinished and has a bad social response.

In the assessment system, Class A is generally distributed by 10-15%, and employees will be paid an additional salary of 15% at the end of the year; Category B is distributed in 75-80%, and the salary is implemented according to the budget; 10% for category C, 20% deduction for salary; The above three categories are subject to mandatory distribution, and category D does not implement mandatory distribution, but implements a veto - the person in charge steps down and the employee takes a 25% pay cut.

Generally speaking, the position of the person in charge of category C will be adjusted for 2 consecutive years, and at the same time, the last elimination system will be implemented - now the business school likes to learn from the United Group, and they vividly describe the last elimination system as the eleventh smash order.

The reason why these systems are introduced is because after the rapid expansion of the United Group, there is a vague problem of management out of control, and it is impossible for Contini to stop and wait for the management to be standardized, and he can only continue to bring in experts from the outside world to help implement the management concepts he imported from later generations, in fact, he himself often seems to understand it - he is only the chief member of an expert group in the company, and he knows what the company operates and manages, and the limited point is still hearsay.

But even such piecemeal management knowledge, in this era when enterprise management is far from being talked about, can be touted by experts as a management master.

This year's category A indicators were given to Goebbels' cultural and creative sector - not only were several subsidiaries profitable, but the films produced were well received, and even the Prime Minister's Office sent a letter to express his gratitude; Another indicator gave Leo his financial sector a 0.4 percent reduction in comprehensive financing costs, a successful issuance of 1 billion corporate construction bonds, and the successful acquisition of Banco del Sur under Francisco's leadership, which became the third largest bank in Italy.

Betty's United Radio & Radio was in Category A last year, but this year it didn't have any particularly impressive results, so it was included in Category B along with most companies.

Finally, after the announcement of category C, in fact, after the announcement of category A and B, category C itself is clear:

The first winner of Category C was United Milan: the club finished the season in 9th place after spending first in the league, lost twice in the same city derby, and also lost one and drew one against Juventus, and the assessment committee unanimously agreed to award Category C. But the peculiarity of United Milan is that the president of the club is Contini himself, so he had to stand up and make a review in front of everyone, self-criticism for not caring enough about the team - how can he have time to accompany Vivian in Switzerland, let alone watch the game on the spot, and even the team's new players can't be recognized, and it is more competitive to be able to win ninth.

Contini vowed that "the Milan Stadium will be officially inaugurated next year, and I believe that we can make a comeback and at least get home a trophy!" ”

The review of the president is a matter of joy and joy for the people below, because the salaries of the employees below have long been deducted, and whether the president's salary is deducted or not is the same thing, and it is more fun for the key president to do the review - it shows that the appraisal committee is still fair.

The second category winner is United Building Materials: similar to bricks and tiles, the United Group disdains, and the main business of United Building Materials is glass, concrete, paints, paints and tiles. As a result, for three consecutive months, United Construction and United Real Estate complained that some of the glass they produced was not good and there were a large number of bubbles, and then the supervision team and the quality inspection team intervened and found that there were also problems with the paint and some coatings, and they needed to be reworked - in order to prevent fraud, the supervision team and the quality inspection team Contini hired foreign experts, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Austria, Germany, the United States, etc., to prevent complicity.

In fact, other economic indicators of United Building Materials have been completed very well, and the output has exceeded the budget, but it is because of the excessive pursuit of output and speed, which finally leads to the final quality control is not strict. In the face of the bright C-class yellow card, the person in charge could only hold his head and smile bitterly: the hard-earned and overfulfilled indicators were not enough for the C-class deduction, but he did not dare to complain about his construction and real estate company, because if they did not complain, they would be complained about after delivery in the future, and then the main body of responsibility would be on themselves. It doesn't matter if the general manager deducts some money, if you go back after a year of hard work and tell the employee to deduct 20% of the salary, it will explode!

You must know that salary deduction alone is not counted, after being rated as Class C, the number of outstanding places in the annual internal assessment will be reduced, the number of places allocated to workers' new villages in the next year will be reduced, and the management promotion and salary increase will be frozen, all of which are a series of problems. So he could only watch Goebbels, Leo, Francisco and others go to receive the President's Special Award - 1 million lire worth of gold bars, and he himself thought about how to go back and review with the workers - this is really hard to open......
